Your Call: Is It Time for the Clintons to Distance Themselves from Their Foundation?

August 18, 2016 - 6:00am

Though many claim the Clinton Foundation, founded 15 years ago by former President Bill Clinton, has done good work in some very poor parts of the world, others maintain the good works are a dodge for the enrichment it brings the Clintons, and at the very least will present a disturbing conflict of interest if Hillary Clinton is elected president in November. 

To spell it out:

Since its founding, the foundation has supported such charitable causes as relief in Haiti, global health and schools where there were none before. 

But the foundation has also provided posts or paychecks for some members of the Clinton political team, like Cheryl Mills, Douglas Band, and Huma Abedin, and gave the former president a platform, travel budget and a sizable income. Many of the foundation’s donations come from overseas, including from foreign governments with troubling human rights records.

Our question to you is simple:

Should the Clinton Foundation stop accepting money sooner rather than later?
